Children not only need, but deserve to have a classroom that feels safe and welcoming. Children today can be very mean spirited. I work really hard to create a classroom that is positive with routine and clear guidelines of what is and is not acceptable. Some years are easier than others. Below you will find a lot of my tips and tricks for setting a good tone to my classroom as well as trying to teach children how to react (or better yet Not react) to bullies.

If you have any suggestions for how you create a great classroom environment I would love to hear from you.
